You will be standing by the reception with a mini-cocktail in your hand. Since all the rooms here are named after a cocktail, that will be your check-in ritual. After that, you will get a coin to be put in the original jukebox from the 1960’s that stands right there in the lobby and has a decent collection of vinyls. Choose a song – A Woman In A Man’s World by Chaka Khan, Voulez Vous by ABBA or Master Blaster by Stevie Wonder, for example – and let it play in your honour with that warm and hearty analogue sound. Then proceed to your room please, dear newborn rockstar, and get ready to enjoy the trademark experience of staying at Tropicana Hotel Coast Suites.

It will have nothing to do with a typical hotel room, though. Upon opening the door, you will find yourself in a small apartment that sleeps three: two in the bedroom and one in the living room. Toying with shutters, you may either separate these spaces or keep them as common area, so that you can go on discussing that mind-blowing party experience with a friend that is trying to fall asleep on the sofa. There is a small kitchen with an American-vintage fridge and a welcome kit of sweets, peanuts and other lovely stuff that may be characterized best as ‘cuteness overload’. Due to white curtains and the atmosphere of an absolute self-sufficiency you will feel completely disconnected from the outer world – in the best sense of this word.

The lovely green and pink hotel clearly stands out from the whole neighbourhood. It’s so bright, fresh and eye-catching that the inhabitants of the nearby houses must be secretly envying the lucky guests of Tropicana. The only fault picky clients might find with the venue is the lack of a sea view – but for this they are allowed to enjoy for free the facilities of Santos Ibiza Coast Suites that also belongs to Concept Hotel Group and is located just 100m far, right on the hottest and busiest beach of the whole Mediterranean that is Playa d’en Bossa.

Ibiza is the island where people come in search of an experience, and Tropicana Hotel Coast Suites is just the right place to live the dream. Quirky and Miami-inspired, it bravely breaks the pattern: instead of simply providing the guests with a place to stay, it inspires rock’n’roll fantasies and encourages stylish metamorphoses. Hurry up to book a room as long as Tropicana is in its first season – by next summer it will most likely be a fully-booked affair.
